A big
thank you
to our
advertisers.
Over 20 students from the
Fort Osage and
Entrepreneurial Studies DECA
Chapters qualified to compete
at the State Competition after
rigorous preparation.
Students in grades 9 through

around the Kansas City metro
at Independence Center in
categories like Hospitality &
Tourism Operations Research,
Automotive Services
Marketing and Financial
Consulting.
Fort Osage senior Alex Deke
has competed at DECA Districts and qualified for
State every year since his freshman marketing
class at the Career & Technology Center. This
year he and his DECA partner, Jared Larson,
achieved three awards, including first place in
Sports Entertainment Operations Research. "At
first I was a little nervous, but now I'm just ready
to compete," Alex shared in a recent interview.
"I'm hoping to take home my first State trophy.
We've been practicing for hours after school. I'm
determined to go to Nationals this year."
The DECA State Competition will take place in
March in downtown Kansas City. Students will
have a chance to earn a spot at DECA Nationals,

school and hold an administrative position.
